Ingredients
- Dough made from wheat bread mixture
- Delicious Caramel Pecan Topping:
- A cup of rich butter
- A cup of firmly packed brown sugar
- A quarter cup of light corn syrup
- One teaspoon of flavorful vanilla extract
- One and a quarter cups of chopped pecans
- Scrumptious Cinnamon Filling:
- Three-fourth cup of firmly packed brown sugar
- Six tablespoons of softened butter
- Three tablespoons of versatile all-purpose wheat flour
- Four teaspoons of aromatic ground cinnamon
Step 1
To start, follow the bread dough recipe instructions and then transfer it to a generously greased bowl. Cover it up and leave it in a cozy spot to rise until it doubles in size, typically around 30 to 45 minutes.
Step 2
Now, let's work on the delectable Caramel Pecan Topping: First, melt a cup of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Mix in brown sugar and corn syrup until it's a smooth consistency. Take it off the heat, then add a touch of vanilla. Spread this luscious mixture evenly in a 13 x 9-inch baking pan and generously sprinkle with pecans.
Step 3
For the flavorful Cinnamon Filling: Combine brown sugar, butter, flour, and cinnamon in a small bowl until crumbly. Roll out your dough on a floured surface to a 16 x 10-inch rectangle. Evenly distribute the filling over the dough, then tightly roll it up starting from the long side. Cut into 15 slices and place them in the prepared pan, cut side down. Loosely cover with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place (around 80 to 90 degrees F) until doubled in size, about 30 to 45 minutes.
Step 4
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the buns for 30 to 35 minutes until they turn a lovely golden brown. Allow them to cool for 10 minutes to let the caramel set. Finally, invert the buns onto a serving plate and enjoy them warm or at room temperature.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep pecans in an airtight container to preserve their crunchiness and prevent them from losing their flavor.
- 2. Store caramel sauce in a glass jar to maintain its silky texture and prevent it from crystallizing.
- 3. Wrap the sticky buns in parchment paper before placing them in a resealable bag to keep them moist and fresh.
